Sixpence None The Richer - Anything
from the album "Sixpence None The Richer"
This is my forty-fifth depressing tune.
They're looking for money as they clean my artisitic womb.
And when I give birth to the child I must take to flight.
'Cause the black in our pocket won't let us fight a proper fight.
So hey baby, can you shed some light on the problem maybe?
'Cause we're all tired and we'd like to know
If we should pack our tents, shut down the show.
Yes, we should like to see a burning bush-type sign.
But anything would be fine.
We're all told to dance but we never picked the tune.
Hanging like puppets they feed us from bent steel spoons.
But we're sealing our lips for the someday
When the needle and the vinyl play all the songs of pain,
Songs that explain all our circles and strains.
So hey baby, can you shed some light on the problem maybe?
'Cause we're all crying and we'd like to know
If we should pack our tents, shut down the show
Yes, we should like to see a burning bush-type sign
But anything would be fine
We're all tired and we'd like to know
If we should pack our tents, shut down the show
Yes, we should like to see a burning bush-type sign
And we should like to see you pack your tents, shut down the show
And we should like to see a burning bush-type sign
But anything would be fine
Oh, anything would be fine
